Explore the Best of Jan Thiel – Your Perfect Curaçao Getaway
Our luxurious villa is located in the secure Marbella Estate, in the heart of Jan Thiel – one of Curaçao’s most popular and upscale areas. Here, everything you need for an unforgettable holiday is just around the corner.
Beaches & Relaxation
Only a 3-minute drive (15-minute walk) away, you’ll find Jan Thiel Beach – a lively, palm-lined hotspot with crystal-clear water, white sand, and popular beach clubs like Zanzibar, Papagayo, Koko’s, and Zest. Rent a beach bed, sip cocktails at sunset, or join the famous Saturday happy hour with live music.
Curaçao has more than 35 public and private beaches that are all very varied. There is a large choice between rocky bays or long sandy beaches
Snorkeling, Diving & Water Sports
Just 5 minutes away by car are Tugboat Beach and Caracas Bay – ideal for snorkeling and diving among coral reefs and a sunken tugboat. Local dive centers like Scuba Do offer beginner dives and full PADI certification. Prefer action? Go jet skiing, flyboarding, or paddleboarding along the coast.
Nature & Wildlife
The Jan Thiel Salt Flats, located just a 10-minute walk from the beach, are perfect for morning hikes or bike rides. Enjoy peaceful trails, spot flamingos and iguanas, and experience Curaçao’s nature up close.
Culture & City Life
A 15-minute drive takes you to the vibrant capital, Willemstad. Explore the colorful streets of Pietermaai, shop in Punda, admire the historic Handelskade, or visit the Kura Hulanda Museum. The city is filled with lively cafes, boutiques, and restaurants catering
to every taste.
Island Trip to Klein Curaçao
Looking for a day of pure paradise? Book a catamaran or speedboat trip to Klein Curaçao – an uninhabited island with white beaches, turquoise waters, and sea turtles. Tours leave daily from the Caracas Bay
(about 1.5 hours by boat, with breakfast and BBQ lunch included).
